(i.e. 1 internet year = 7 human years)
We all knew that in the late 1990s. In fact, I had a $200,000 grant to
study that.
Now, with the Mobile Revolution joining the Internet Revolution, I am
seeking $1M to see if an internet/mobile year is twice as fast = 14 human
years.
Yours in continuous connectivity,
Barry Wellman
